There is a sediment of evil
And ash left from past happiness in my soul
There is sadness left from past joy
And only my mind can stretch
The tearing thread of hope to the horizon
And try to change, at least something
Pointless arguments, fog of words
Palaces and huts, light and darkness...
The only consolation is
To hold your own till death
To cast the old clutter out of your soul
And drive the old fear out of sight
To step out of darkness into the light
Like for the first time
Re-tie the torn thread of hope together
To say to yourself for the hundredth time
That you can change something
A game may not be worth the candle
But believe again that you can win
And he who prevails in the end
Will be the one
Who lit the fire of kindness
There is a sediment of evil
And ash left from past happiness in my soul
There is sadness left from past joy
And only my mind can stretch
The tearing thread of hope to the horizon
Take, perhaps, the risk again
That someday at least something will change
There is a sediment of evil
And ash left from past happiness in my soul
There is sadness left from past joy
And only my mind can stretch
The tearing thread of hope to the horizon
And try to change, at least something
